She shared snaps of her transformation in the DIY On A Budget UK  where she revealed her creative approach which saw her blend various shades of paint to create her desired hue.

She wrote: "Paint on cupboards is Craig and rose Zeitgeist which is the dark and the pink is a mix from B&Q similar to Farrow and Ball, Sulking Room, all in eggshell. Used primer on the cupboards before.

She added that the green paint on the walls is a mixture of different shades she had and mixed dark green with black.

Mixing shades of paint at home might be a gamble for some, but her fearless approach paid off because the result is incredible.

She even revealed that she'd used stick back plastic for the bench tops, rather than spending a fortune on solid timber - and you couldn't even tell.

The emerald tones complemented the timber work tops and floors, while the rose pink accents pared perfectly with the rest.

while a third fan wrote: "Utterly beautiful"

And a fourth person said: "I love how much character this has"
